Manufacturers and importers of
motor-vehicle gasoline, motor-vehicle disel fuel, and additives for
those fuels, are required to have these products registered by the
EPA prior to their introduction into commerce. Registration
involves providing a chemical description of the fuel or additive
and certain technical, marketing, and health-effects information.
Manufacturers are also required to submit periodic reports. The
information is used to identify fuels or additives whose
evaporative or combustion emissions may pose an unreasonable risk
to public health, thus meriting further investigation and potential
regulation.
